What is a Room Integrity Test?
-
Room Integrity Tests are important to ensure the room you are protecting is sealed sufficiently to hold the specific gas/agent used, if there is a leak within the room it is important to know as soon as possible as a leak will affect the effectiveness of the suppression system and in its worst case will not extinguish the fire. PLP Fire Protection carry out integrity testing to the protected room and provide certification on completion in conjunction with your fire suppression maintenance.
